These guys totally rock! If I was blurbing Riptide, I'd say it was "Engrossing and unique, a vertical adventure full of lethal traps and surprises!" Love the pirate history. Love the engineering. Love the mission. Great fun. Love it. Go read this book if you haven't already.

In the meanwhile, I thought I'd try a walk on the other side of this dynamic duo. Deep Storm is the solo novel that I found first from Lincoln Child... and HOLY FREAKING BALLS OF FIRE, BATMAN! This guy is insane! Talk about your wild science fiction ideas wrapped in a present-day burrito of tension, technology and explosive finales!!! Yeah, that's my blurb. "This book is a fat burrito of pleasure!" That oughta sell some copies.

I don't want to give anything away, so once again I won't speak to the plot, but this is one pulsing-pounding high concept thriller. Wow.
